QUALIMETRIC APPROACH IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE METHODOLOGICAL SYSTEM FOR ASSESSING THE QUALITY OF TRAINING OF SPECIALISTS IN COLLEGES OF CONSTRUCTION PROFILE

Abstract

The article reveals the essence of the qualimetric approach and establishes its role in the procedures for assessing the quality of training in institutions of professional higher education. The conditions of reforming the system of domestic higher education, which is caused by increasing the requirements of society to the level of intellectual and moral development of university graduates, to their social and professional mobility are analyzed. It is noted that solving the problems of modernization of education is associated with the introduction of a competency-based approach, shifting the emphasis from subject-disciplinary and substantive aspects to the expected results of the educational process, expressed in terms of competencies. The article considers the concepts of “qualimetry”, “pedagogical qualimetry”, as well as its types, methods, components, principles of qualimetric approach, qualimetric quality indicators, which are directly related to the process of assessing the quality of education. The requirements to the organization of the assessment of the quality of training of specialists in institutions of professional higher education of construction profile are singled out. The expediency of using a qualimetric approach focused on measuring the quality of the analyzed pedagogical objects is substantiated for assessing the quality of training of specialists in institutions of professional higher education of construction profile. The set of principles of qualimetric approach to the system of quality assessment of training in construction colleges (principles of decomposition, priority, standardization, inequality, rationing, variety of diagnostic methods) is characterized. It is noted that for multifaceted quality control of training should be created diagnostic tools that meet the requirements of integrative and structured educational material included in them, which on a par with the assessment of knowledge, skills, assess the ability of students to creative activity. The considered aspects give grounds to claim that the implementation of the system of quality assessment of training in construction colleges from the standpoint of qualimetric approach will optimize the process of monitoring the formation of competencies of students of professional higher education.
